This article gives a good overview of the plusses and minuses of reverse osmosis. This article is basically negative. This article gives an overview of the different types of filtering, and the pH issues. This article is an even better overview of different filter types, and has some particularly scary info on reverse osmosis systems.
I currently am using Concentrace
So now I'm looking for another solution. Here's a Yahoo answer on the topic, which is interesting. What it refers to is reverse osmosis filters that have an extra filter for remineralization, like this one or this one or this one. I guess we should have gotten one like that in the first place, but unfortunately did not. Or we could replace or supplement our current filter with a water ionizer, like this one, that filters and then makes the water alkaline. However these water ionizers look fishy to me and here's a page that debunks the chemistry behind them. (Although I have to say I disagree with it saying that drinking acidic water is ok, that just doesn't make sense to me at all. Here's the Mayo Clinic on alkaline water but they don't talk about acidic water.)
The other possibility is to get some alkaline booster drops to add to our water such as Alkalife, Alkazone
